Hot Diggity, He Crawls!

At long last the little man has learned to crawl! It ain't pretty yet, but he is so stoked to be on the move. I am overwhelmed with pride, amusement, and trepidation. I fear that life just got simultaneously much easier and much more complicated all at once. A massive baby-proofing endeavor will begin this weekend.

Other new skills include crawling over to items, pulling to stand, and clapping. See the clapping cuteness for yourself below.

A Change of Plans

Earlier this month we had decided to play hooky and head to a mid-day Rockies game to enjoy the sun, baseball, and time with our son. Sadly, the weather had other plans. Cold rain and 40 degree temps forced us indoors. So, we took the little guy on his first journey to the Denver Children's Museum. We ALL LOVED IT! The camera died shortly after we arrived but there are a few pics to enjoy!

Um, Yeah...

So, it has been nigh on to a year since I last updated this. Sorry. Forgot all about it in all the hubub of baby-ness. However, several people have asked me to start writing about things that are going on and post some pictures of the sweet boy.

To recap the past 10 months...

• Rylan Thomas Griffith was born on 9/2/09 and was and continues to be fantastic.


• He is now 8 months old with red hair (!), brown eyes, and 8 teeth.


• I am working part-time in several random places in order to stay with Ry most of the time.


• Ben is still working at Lockheed.


• We still love our new house and are starting to make it feel more homey.

I have attached a recent pic of the little guy and will endeavor to update his adventures regularly.
